Clearing covers 2.56 square miles between Harlem Avenue to the west, rail tracks east of Cicero Avenue to the east, 59th Street to the north and 65th Street to the south, with 24,473 residents in 2020. But the southern half of Midway Airport sits inside those boundaries, and the Clearing Industrial District — founded in 1909, one of the earliest planned industrial parks — takes another large share. This page covers the residential pockets only: Chrysler Village plus the brick bungalow and two-flat blocks. Pitched roofs predominate there, so seamless gutter installation at the eaves is the usual system, and homes of this era typically show standard bungalow geometry. See also gutter installation in Garfield Ridge to the north.
Chrysler Village is the defining pocket: a 64-acre planned community of 700 units — single-family homes, duplexes and multi-unit row houses in Minimal Traditional style, built in 1943 for Dodge-Chrysler defense workers building B-29 engines, south of Midway. Its National Register listing dates to 2014, and listing is honorary; whether any review applies to gutter work on a given block is something to check before work begins. The village's uniformity means repeatable Minimal Traditional roof systems across 700 units, so homes of this era typically share the same small pitched roofs, the same eave lines and the same gutter ages. Gutter repair and gutter cleaning follow that repeated pattern, and downspout repair serves the row-house and duplex shared walls.
The town of Clearing was founded in 1912 and annexed in 1915, and airport adjacency shapes the residential pockets: envelope-aware owners, compact routing across a small 2.56-square-mile area, and the constant presence of Midway to the north.
